Top 8 Bluetooth Headsets 7

BlueAnt Z9i

The update to the widely popular BlueAnt Z9, the Z9i makes an already good thing better -- it's more comfortable, it sounds clearer, and it's cheaper. The newest headset from BlueAnt has been praised almost as much as the Jawbone. Though perhaps lacking a bit in the fashion-forward department, the Z9i's blue-glowing-ant-shaped LED display is pretty cool. It has an ear bud with various-sized ear bud covers, along with an ergonomic ear hook. The Z9i's even got a mini clip on the back for hooking to a shirt when not in use.

This little bugger is full of features including typical call/answer options, voice command support, call conferencing, multi-pairing up to five devices, and more. The voice-isolation technology offers two modes, one for standard noise polluted areas and another for noisier situations such as motorcycle rides and dog fights. Ultimately, we found the BlueAnt Z9i to be one of the best sounding and most comfortable headsets out there. Though the Z9i retails for about $130, you can find it online for 65 bucks.
